My friend just got himself an '02 blue Sentra SE-R Spec V., beautiful car! Sooo.. since my friend is so confident he's gonna hand me one in his new SE-R vs. the GS-R, I figure "why not". I mean after driving the SE-R, it did leave me impressed and I was thinking I was gonna catch a beat down, but alas.. this is why ya run em'
We head out to some warehouses near my house, line up on a long stretch of road. Both cars are stock BTW, and my friend has his 220lb brother with him, i'm alone. We bring up the revs and ::BAM:: we're off!! We both get nominal wheel spin but I pul out on him, hit 2nd and i'm a good 3/4 car ahead, ring 2nd out and hit 3rd, I'm over a car on him and inching ever so slowly, top 4th when I let off I'm a good car and a half up..

We line up again... 3-2-1 GO! We're off both with some wheelspin again (BTW the SE-R comes with a factory LSD, GS-R doesn't) and again I pull maybe half a car on him from the jump. Hit 2nd and I'm inching away, hit 3rd and I've got a good car on him and I shut it down..

We stop on a small side street and chit chat, he now has a dumbfounded look on his face, I mean after all he told me how he was killing Si's and took a Type R already, and here he loses to a bone stock GS-R. So I told him to let me have his brother ride with me (I wanted absolutley no excuses), he switches and we're off to the roads again.

To make a long story short(er), each time we ran with his bro in my car it was close through 3rd gear with him having about a car length on me. Oh well, till March 15th we'll just have to wait and see what happens. I'll make sure to get alot of video's when we all this the track together though.. to be continued

CLIFFS: Friend get's a new SE-R and is positive he's gonna "kill" my GS-R... I left him somewhat less than positive

Nice job..

Those cars are pretty.. But performance wise (motor and suspension).. they that good..

02-06-2002, 11:39 AM

They're actually a very well balanced car IMO. My only really big gripes were the very vauge shifter and the brakes seemed a bit rough. Nothing out of this world though. Car handles quite well, torque is pleantyful down low and it's a flexible motor thought it's not too happy with doing alot of high rpm screaming. I'd definatley consider one if I was in the market for a new car though no doubt

VTC... my roommate has a SER V and he says your freind dont' know how to drive (he himself is new to hving a car with balls)... i just wish you two could race.... i'd hook you two up for a quick run....

Man that would be a killer dont make him look that bad in his new car. do you know the specs on those cars

02-15-2002, 10:52 AM

2.5L DOHC 16v I-4
175hp
175lbs-tq
6500rpm redline

Weights about 2750lbs

The car has good power, but it's a big displacement engine so no top end, which is where honda's thrive. Car's weight is about the same as a GSR though. Those SE-R's seem to be pretty nice, I wouldn't mind checking one out, but for a new car, the horsepower is kinda lacking. I'd rather go for an RSX Type S instead. I'd prefer an Integra to anything else though.

Nice kill though!

nice job, i always wondered how those cars performed. if i was looking for a new car, it would have to be a wrx, or the evolution when it floats over next year.
